Don't Cry Joni
Joni was a girl who lives next door
I've known her I guess 10yrs or more
Joni wrote me a note oneday
And this is what she had to say
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up oneday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love, forever true
Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say
Joni Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen
And I'm twenty two
Joni I just can't wait for you
Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words keep haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up oneday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love, forever true
I packed my clothes
And I caught a plane
I had to see Joni
I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
I ran all the way
To the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say
Jimmy Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend John.

The tittle should be: Don't cry Jimmy.
HAH.
Don't cry Jimmy...
